You enjoy improving systems, strengthening cyber controls, and delivering projects that make a real operational impact.
You will also:
Manage relationships with MSPs, telecommunications partners, software vendors and suppliers.
Own all hardware/software procurement, licensing, mobility devices and equipment lifecycle management.
Lead and deliver IT projects including ERP improvements, Microsoft 365 enhancements, SharePoint development and automation initiatives.

Drive cybersecurity uplift — monitoring risk, improving controls, and ensuring compliance across all business locations.
Provide cross-functional support to teams including onboarding/offboarding, process improvements and ongoing training.
Build trust and strong working relationships across the organisation and be seen as the “go to” person for all things technology.
Hold a current Australian Driver's Licence
